the corrupt-dump-fuzzer test found a case where an access to a corrupt
stream would have caused accessing to uninitialized memory.
now it'll panic instead.
The issue was that there was a stream that says it has more than 0
records, but looking for the max ID came back empty handed.
p.s. when sanitize-dump-payload is used, this corruption is detected,
and the RESTORE command is gracefully rejected.
We sometimes see the crash report saying we were killed by a random
process even in cases where the crash was spontanius in redis.
for instance, crashes found by the corrupt-dump test.
It looks like this si_pid is sometimes left uninitialized, and a good
way to tell if the crash originated in redis or trigged by outside is to
look at si_code, real signal codes are always > 0, and ones generated by
kill are have si_code of 0 or below.
Reading CoW from /proc/<pid>/smaps can be slow with large processes on
some platforms.
This measures the time it takes to read CoW info and limits the duty
cycle of future updates to roughly 1/100.
As current_cow_size no longer represnets a current, fixed interval value
there is also a new current_cow_size_age field that provides information
about the age of the size value, in seconds.
Since redis 6.2, redis immediately tries to connect to the master, not
waiting for replication cron.
in the slow freebsd CI, this test failed and master_link_status was
already "up" when INFO was called.
pcall function runs another LUA function in protected mode, this means
that any error will be caught by this function and will not stop the LUA
execution. The script kill mechanism uses error to stop the running script.
Scripts that uses pcall can catch the error raise by the script kill mechanism,
this will cause a script like this to be unkillable:
local f = function()
while 1 do
redis.call('ping')
end
end
while 1 do
pcall(f)
end
The fix is, when we want to kill the script, we set the hook function to be invoked
after each line. This will promise that the execution will get another
error before it is able to enter the pcall function again.
Some operating systems (e.g., NetBSD and OpenBSD) have switched to
using a 64-bit integer for time_t on all platforms. This results in currently
harmless compiler warnings due to potential truncation.
These changes fix these minor portability concerns.
* Fix format string for systems with 64 bit time
* use llabs to avoid truncation with 64 bit time
In the long term we may want to move away from anet completely and have
everything implemented natively in connection.c, instead of having an
extra layer.
For now, just get rid of unused code.
